Happy 2nd Birthday Sweet Girls!

I can't believe that our sweet little girls are already 2 years old. Time goes by so fast! Although it is fun to watch them reach new milestones, a part of me feels sad. It's amazing how, even at 2 years old, independent they are becoming. They are talking a lot (sometimes even calling us by our first names, rather than mommy & daddy), feeding themselves, and becoming more and more self sufficient each day. It's exciting to see them grow, but a part of me misses them being totally dependent upon me. I still constantly kiss them (I can't resist)!

Some of the things I LOVE most about my girls: I LOVE when they lay their little faces on mine, I LOVE that they play dress up with my make up and shoes, I LOVE that they say "my mommy and my daddy" and they are so cute when they say "daddy poo," I LOVE when they give kisses, I LOVE hearing them laugh, and I LOVE that they love each other. I could go on and on...

We had a party for the girls at Monkey Joe's and they had a lot of fun. The party was (literally) right after nap time, so it took Hannah a little while to warm up. Gracie started jumping right away. I made monkey cupcakes for the party; they looked more like bears, but the girls thought they were monkey's which is all that mattered! The girls received many fun gifts and everyone had a great time.

**Special thanks to our friend Chad for taking TONS of pictures; our camera decided to stink that day! As soon as I can get them to upload, I will post....
